Howdy.
Just wanted to let you guys know about my new theme.
http://macromates.com/wiki/Themes/UserSubmittedThemes http://textmate.svn.subtlegradient.com/Themes/Brilliance%20Black% 20BETA.tmTheme
I'd like you guys to test it our for me and let me know if any of it looks ugly or unusable with the code that you use.
I developed primarily for xHTML, CSS, JS, RubyOnRails & Ruby. I also tested and tweaked it for: actionscript, Ada, ANTLR, asp, asp.net, C, C++, obj-C, embedded Django, java, markdown, MIPS Assembler, Perl, PHP, Python, Slate, SQL, xml
XML is currently rather hard to read without a bright monitor. PHP could use some color tweaks to look less ugly. (even though php doesn't deserve to look pretty ;) )
I haven't tested it with LaTeX, yet. I got some great code samples from <insert name here, because I forgot it> If anyone uses a language where this theme looks ugly, please let me know.
The idea of this theme is to be the ultimate theme prototype that all themes are based on. I, personally, will use this theme as the template that all my new themes are based on. So I really want to get the scopes as perfect and all-encompassing as possible.
Thanks! Enjoy ;)
PS: no screenshots of it yet.

Hey Thomas,
you're on a theming spree. (Imagine that in the voice of the quake announcer). It looks good and meets my taste in general, high contrast on black bg. Here is a screenshot with a little problem though:
The Heredoc stuff is hardly readable and the comments could maybe get a little more contrast, too.
Cheers, Stan aka Soryu.
PS: I'm kind of working on a new theme, too, so watch it :)
blarrgh!
What language and whatnot are you using in that snapshot? The bottom is obviously html.
I'll need to get some more sample code to properly design this thing.
good thing I added the word "BETA" huh? ;)

Ah, sure, forgot to mention that I mostly use PHP all day, HTML, CSS and SQL. I can give you some feedback for those.
As for "BETA", yes, I thought about that but yet decided to feed you back :)

My first reaction was ARGH. But it definately has something :) I usually have a hard time with to much colour (use the Twilight theme myself) but perhaps colour is a good idea ... I just have a slight problem with such a hard black background. So I changed background to #222222, undid the italicized comments (since I use Monaco 9 non-antialiased) and it looks pretty good now. Except that it's still ugly. Ugly but possibly useful. I just can't stand the looks of things with background or underline, but I realize it can be quite useful.

You are too right. It is just way too brilliant for constant use.
So.....
